The Wabe Bitter Nerd™ Reviews Fight Cast or Evade


I was a little leery about the subject of today’s review. First, it’s a Keenspace comic, which is to say it gets enough publicity through self-serving link-farms as it is. Second, it is also one of the self-proclaimed “unholy trinity of furry webcomics”—the others being Umlaut House and Badly Drawn Kitties—so I’m sure to incur the wrath of the anti-furry faction. Still, it’s a damn fine comic and I was working late and I didn’t have time to choose another comic so bite me.
